中华缩叶藓孢子萌发与原丝体发育特征研究

通过室内人工培养中华缩叶藓的孢子,在光学显微镜下详细观察了其孢子萌发、原丝体发育及配子体发生的全过程.结果表明:中华缩叶藓的孢子在壁内萌发,随后分裂产生块状原丝体;块状原丝体上可产生两种丝状体,一种是具疣的棒状原丝体,另一种是由长圆柱状细胞组成的轴丝体;配子体原始细胞只产生于块状原丝体上.根据中华缩叶藓的孢子萌发和原丝体发育特征,并参照Nishida对藓类植物孢子萌发类型的划分,确定中华缩叶藓的萌发孢子型应属于缩叶藓型(Ptychomitrium-type).

Identification of melanoma-specific peptide epitopes by HLA-A2.1-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes

HLA-A2.1-associated peptides, extracted from human melanoma cells, were used to study epitopes for melanoma-specific HLA-A2.1-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes （CTLs） by epitope reconstitution, active peptide sequence characterization and synthetic peptide verification. CTL were generated from tumor-involved nodes by in vitro stimulation, initially with autologous melanoma cells and subsequently with allogeneic HLA-A2.1 positive melanoma cells. The CTLs could lyse autologous and aUogeneic HLA-A2. 1 positive melanomas, but not HLA-A2.1 negative melanomas or HLA-A2.1 positive non-melanomas. The lysis of melanomas could be inhibited by anti-CD3, anti-HLA class I and anti-HLA-A2.1 monoclonal antibodies. HLA-A2.1 molecules were purified from detergent-solubilized human melanoma cells by immunoaffinity column chromatography and further fractionated by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. The fractions were assessed for their ability to reconstitute melanoma-specific epitopes with HLA-A2.1 positive antigen-processing mutant T2 cells. Three reconstitution peaks were observed in lactate dehydrogenase release assay. Mass spectrometry and ion-exchange high performance liquid chromatography analysis were used to identify peptide epitopes. Peptides with a mass-to-charge ratio of 948 usually consist of nine amino acid residues. The data from reconstitution experiments confirmed that the synthetic peptides contained epitopes and that the peptides associated with HLA-A2.1 and recognized by melanoma-specific CTL were present in these different melanoma cells. These peptides could be potentially exploited in novel peptide-based antitumor vaccines in immunotherapy for CTL.

缩胆囊素受体拮抗剂对血浆缩胆囊素生物测定的影响

利用生物法测定了102例正常人空腹及进食二个油煎鸡蛋30min后血浆CCK浓度,结果分别为1.4±0.1pmol/L和4.9±0.4pmol/L(X±SE)。血浆CCK浓度不随性别和年龄而变化。本文研究了三种不同类型的CCK受体拮抗剂对CCK生物测定的影响。一组将L364,718(5.0nmol/L),丙谷胺(1.0mmol/L)或Bt_2-cGMP(0.1mmol/L)分别加入含8pmol/LCCK-8的人血浆,用SEP-PAK提取,另一组先提取血浆,于测定前向血浆提取物内加入上述拮抗剂,两组同时测定。结果显示,在有L364,718存在时仍可利用生物法测定血浆CCK浓度,如血中含有丙谷胺或Bt_2-cGMP则无法准确测定。     

蚕豆染色体集缩和解集缩过程中的螺旋结构

运用常规电镜技术观察到,在有丝分裂前期的集缩过程中,蚕豆(Vicia faba)染色体横切面为直径约0.5μm的染色质纤维形成的环状结构;染色体纵切面上存在着平行排列的0.5μm染色质纤维,它们与染色体长轴所成的角度近似直角。通过立体电镜观察可清晰辨认出这些纤维盘绕成的螺旋结构。在有丝分裂末期至间期的解集缩过程中,染色体横切面由环形变为“C”形。这种“C”形构造显示了染色体螺旋结构的解螺旋过程。在染色体集缩和解集缩过程中均可观察到0.5μm染色质纤维和直径约0.2μm的染色质纤维。本文讨论了放射环模型和多级螺旋模型。     

Identification of peptides inhibiting adhesion of monocytes to the injured vascular endothelial cells through phage-displaying screening

Using oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-injured vascular endothelial cells (ECs) as target cells, peptides specifically binding to the injured ECs were screened from a phage-displaying peptide library by using the whole-cell screening technique after three cycles of the ““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““adsorption-elution-amplification““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““ procedure. Positive phage clones were identified by ELISA, and the inserted amino acid sequences in the displaying peptides were deduced from confirmation with DNA sequencing. The adhesion rate of ECs to monocytes was evaluated by cell counting. The activity of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and the expression levels of caveolin-1 and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were determined by Western blotting. Six positive clones specifically binding to injured ECV304 endothelial cells were selected from fourteen clones. Interestingly, four phages had peptides with tandem leucine, and two of these even shared an identical sequence. Functional analysis demonstrated that the YCPRYVRRKLENELLVL peptide shared by two clones inhibited the expression of ICAM-1, increased nitric oxide concentration in the culture media, and upregulated the expression of caveolin- 1 and eNOS. As a result, the adhesion rate of monocytes to ECV304 cells was significantly reduced by 12.1%. These data suggest that the anti-adhesion effect of these novel peptides is related to the regulation of the caveolin- 1/nitric oxide signal transduction pathway, and could be of use in potential therapeutic agents against certain cardiovascular diseases initiated by vascular endothelial cell damage.     

Preparation and preliminary application of monoclonal antibodies against Trichokirin-S1, a small ribosome-inactivating peptide from the seeds of Trichosanthes kirilowii

Trichokirin-S1,a small ribosome-inactivating peptide recently purified from the seeds ofTrichosanthes kirilowii,has potential clinical applications because of its small molecular mass.Two stablestrains of hybridomas (1F11 and 2A5) that can secrete highly specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) againstTrichokirin-S1 have been developed using the hybridoma technique.The isotypes of these two mAbs,1F11and 2A5,were determined to be IgG_(2a) and IgG_1,respectively.The affinity constants,which were measuredby non-competitive ELISA,were found to be 2.3×10~8 M~(-1) and 2.8×10~8 M~(-1),respectively.An immunoaffinitymethod using 2A5-coupled Sepharose 4B was successfully developed to purify Trichokirin-S1.These twoantibodies have also been used to detect Trichokirin-S1 in Western blot.
